Fresh n’ Lean Review

Fresh n’ Lean is an organic meal delivery service particularly designed for individuals who want to stay fit and energized, and those who want to turn their lives around and start eating as healthily as possible. Its rich menu features freshly made, ready-to-eat meals made of nothing but all-natural ingredients of the finest quality. If maintaining a healthy diet seems like too much trouble, this Fresh n’ Lean review will show you how you can keep your body happy without almost any effort.

How Fresh n’ Lean Works

Fresh n’ Lean offers 100% gluten-free, low-sodium meals for a variety of customer profiles. Its meals are suitable for seniors, vegans, vegetarians, people on the Paleo and keto diets, and physically active individuals, as well as people who are trying to lose weight.

The company’s customers get to choose between two ordering methods. One involves opting for a subscription and choosing from 5 carefully designed meal plans, including Protein+, Keto, Paleo, Vegan Standard, and Vegan Low-Carb. The other option is ordering meals a la carte, commitment-free, without subscribing to the service.

If you opt for a meal plan, you can choose to receive meals for 5 or 7 days per week and decide whether you wish to receive 1, 2 or 3 meals per day (breakfast, lunch, and dinner).  You can also customize your meal plan by eliminating the ingredients you dislike or need to avoid or adding some snacks and meals from the a la carte menu to your order. The company also offers you the possibility to set up bi-weekly deliveries.

Fresh n’ Lean subscription is extremely flexible and once you have received your first order, you can end or pause your subscription whenever you like. You can skip up to 3 consecutive orders. Pausing for more than 3 consecutive weeks constitutes a termination of subscription. It is important to note that if you want to request plan modifications, skip a week or end your subscription, you need to inform the Fresh n’ Lean staff by phone. We have to be honest and say that we believe this is a rather unnecessary complication, given that most meal delivery services allow you to do so online, directly from your account.

What Makes Fresh n’ Lean Different

What sets Fresh n’ Lean apart from most of the competition is the quality of the ingredients used to prepare the meals. You can eat the company’s dishes completely guilt-free, knowing that they only contain natural, organic ingredients that do wonders for your health and your waistline.

Another distinctive feature of this meal delivery service is reflected in the variety of diets its meals are suitable for. Rarely can we say that a company offers meals that can be enjoyed by virtually anyone, regardless of what their dietary needs and preferences may be, as in the case of Fresh n’ Lean.

We have already mentioned in this Fresh n’ Lean review that this company’s meals are not only suitable for a variety of special dietary needs but can also be customized to accommodate the needs of nearly all potential customers. What is more, the meals are reasonably priced, considering the quality, and they can be purchased individually, without a subscription, so there are no obligations.

Recently, the service has redesigned its official website, which is something we hoped for when it first came under our radar. Before, there were no photos of the meals and the site was pretty difficult to navigate. Now, you get gorgeous photos and nutritional facts for each dish on the menu and ordering is as easy as it can be. Therefore, we would like to praise Fresh n’ Lean for doing its best to improve its service and make the entire experience more pleasurable for its patrons.

Meals And Recipes

When we tested the meals for the purpose of this Fresh n’ Lean review, we could taste the freshness and the quality of the ingredients in every bite and every meal we tried was cooked just right. What we also love is that the menu is incredibly rich. It features dozens of entrees suitable for lunch and dinner, breakfasts that can double as snacks, as well as side dishes and cooked food sold in bulk.

Due to the low-sodium content, the meals are perfect for seniors. Delicious, low-carb, low-fat, and low-calorie meals can help you lose some extra pounds without feeling hungry all the time. The protein-packed dishes are great for active individuals and may even suit the needs of professional athletes. Everything is organic and gluten-free, which makes the meals incredibly healthy and suitable for people who need to steer clear of gluten. The  Paleo plan offers an abundance of great dishes prepared in strict accordance with the rules of the Paleolithic diet, while the Keto plan makes it surprisingly easy to say goodbye to bad carbs. Finally, as we have mentioned before in this Fresh n’ Lean review, this company is a great choice for vegans and vegetarians alike.

If you wish to customize your meal plan, you can omit as many as 3 ingredients per plan, which allows you to avoid ingredients you may be allergic to or simply don’t like. However, it is important to note that garlic, onion, and carrots cannot be omitted, as they are important ingredients of nearly every meal in the company’s offer.

Now, when it comes to Weekly Meal Plans, you can choose from eight different meal plans. We will list all of them with a brief overview that can help you make the right decision.

• Protein+ – Designed to optimize your fitness and enable high performance with high protein count of whopping 71%.
• Keto – Designed to cut the carb count and fat.
• Paleo – Designed for those who want to eat whole foods offering grass-fed beef, premium protein and low carbs.
• Standard Vegan – Designed for those Vegans who want to cut meat from their diet and eat clean with a seasonal menu.
• Low Carb Vegan – A variation of the standard vegan diet with organic vegetables.
• Whole30 – Designed to reset your health with premium protein and low carbs.
• Mediterranean Diet – Designed for those looking to get the maximum from their meals. Offers high fiber count, clean fat and premium protein organically grown.

Of course, you can always design a completely personalized menu by ordering a la carte. You can get whichever meals, sides, and bulk items suit your taste and enjoy savings with larger orders.

Heating And Storage Tips

Fresh n’ Lean meals are always fresh, never frozen. You should pop them into your fridge as soon as you can to ensure they remain in perfect shape until you are ready to eat. They can last for 7 to 10 days if refrigerated. In case you want to store your meals frozen, you can keep them in your freezer for 6 to 8 weeks and thaw them for 36 to 48 hours in a fridge before reheating them.

When it comes to reheating, it only takes 2-3 minutes. Just poke a few holes in the protective plastic film, place your meal in a microwave, set the time, and no more than 3 minutes later, the food is hot, delicious, and ready to eat.

Pricing

If you opt for one of the Fresh n’ Lean meal plans, your weekly total depends on the meal plan you pick, the number of meals you want to get per day, and the number of days per week you want to enjoy the company’s meals.

The Vegan Low-Carb plan starts at $10 per meal, while the most affordable option is the Vegan Standard plan, which starts at $8 per meal.
